Kinda crazy driving so fast. GTIs are fast - either the 1.8T or the VR6 - both wicked fast. Are you sure it was a GTI or was it a Golf ?

[right][snapback]245731[/snapback][/right] Erm. The 1.8T is quick ish. The VR6 gets about 200bhp. Both are fodder. If that's 'wicked fast' you need to get your ass down to a racetrack sometime. -------------------- JDM ST205

My friend wants a gti. They are no joke. The r32 is 6 cyl turbo awd about 250 hp stock, the r34 is the 1.8 turbo, also quick about 180 hp stock. The vr6 has 200 hp stock, and is turbo'd. Not to mention they are small and pretty light.

yea. R32 uses the VR6 engine but R32 tuned if i've got the info correctly. but either way, 1.8T, VR6, R32, or R34, they are some mean rides.... really fast. even the jetta are fast too.

they're quick, my buddy up at school has the 20th anniversary Rabbit edition, its pretty quick... and a girl at my school has a R32... its not too bad either. i can beat the GTi no problem... the girl with the R32 didnt go to the drag day so i never raced her in the 1/4, but i did beat her at the autoxs, shes pretty good too... runs SCCA in the womens division.
